November 13: The newest addition to the Airbus family of commercial aircraft, the A220, has made its first visit to Nepal as part of a world demonstration tour.

Issuing a press statement, Airbus said that the single-aisle A220-300 was on display at Tribhuvan International Airport, Kathmandu, on November 11 and 12.

According to the company, the aircraft, which can accommodate 145 passengers, is on a demo tour of four countries including China, Nepal, Turkey and Thailand.

“It offers exceptional performance, comfort and profitability and is well-suited for high altitude airports such as Kathmandu,” the statement added.

The A220 delivers unbeatable fuel efficiency and true widebody comfort in a single aisle aircraft, the company said.

“The aircraft brings together state-of-the-art aerodynamics, advanced materials and Pratt & Whitney’s latest-generation PW1500G geared turbofan engines to offer at least a 20 percent lower fuel burn per seat compared to previous generation aircraft. With a range of up to 3,200 nautical miles (5,020 km), the A220 offers the performance of larger single aisle aircraft.”
